Figure 5From: Evaluation of characteristics of CD44+CD117+ ovarian cancer stem cells in three dimensional basement membrane extract scaffold versus two dimensional monoculturesLess apoptosis and more survival of CD44+117+CSCs than SKOV-3 cells in 3D culture versus 2D one. A shows the cell apoptotic results detected by Cell Titer-Glo® Luminescent cell viability measurement. B indicates the survival cell numbers in the 3D and 2D culture respectively, from the test by Survival assay. Statistically significant differences are indicated by asterisk (*) for P < 0.05 or (**) for P < 0.03.Back to article page
